[Vocabulary] nurture / train students?

[jka2404]

Could you please have a look at the sentence to check if it sounds OK? I would appreciate it very much

The basis of this profile is the demand to nurture BSc Management students who would have a deep knowledge of general laws and regularities of the world economy and ... <description of other competences to be developed>.

I wonder if the word ‘nurture’ really fits the sentence. I doubt that ‘train’ or ‘prepare’ would be better. Could you please help with the verb that would sound natural in this context?

P.S. By 'profile' i mean the profile of study

Hi,

Perhaps 'support' would work here?

Best wishes,

Sue

Your sentence is barely comprehensible, however.

Many thanks for your help! Will this sentence make more sense: This profile was developed to respond to the need to support/train/give training to students who would have a deep knowledge of general laws of the world economy ... ? Could you please reply once again if in this revised sentence the verbs 'support' or 'train' make sense?

I still don't know what you mean by profile but I think it would be much better to say "respond to the need to train students". There is no need to add more words when they only make things less comprehensible.
